RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
NIST Develops 'Dimmer Switch' for Superconducting Quantum Computing Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed the first "dimmer switch" for a superconducting circuit linking a quantum bit (qubit) and a quantum bus—promising technologies for storing and transporting information in future quantum computers. The NIST switch is a new type of control device that can tune interactions between these components and potentially could speed up the development of a practical quantum computer.
Quantum computers, if they can be built, would use the curious rules of quantum mechanics to solve certain problems that are now intractable, such as breaking today’s most widely used data encryption codes, or running simulations of quantum systems that could unlock the secrets of high-temperature superconductors. Unlike many competing systems that store and transport information using the quantum properties of individual atoms, superconducting qubits use a "super flow" of oscillating electrical current to store information in the form of microwave energy. Superconducting quantum devices are fabricated like today’s silicon processor chips and may be easy to manufacture at the large scales needed for computation.
austriamicrosystems Releases Robust, High-Resolution, Contactless Magnetic Angle Sensor With SAE SENT J2716 Interface
austriamicrosystems, a designer and manufacturer of high performance analog ICs, has released the AS5165, a contactless magnetic angle position sensor for accurate angular measurement over a full 360°. The high-resolution magnetic rotary sensor offers improved protection features for reliable operation in harsh automotive environments and includes a SENT J2716* interface for simple transmission of high-resolution sensor information.
Update: The Global Permanent Magnet Market 2010-2020
The original publication date of October 1, 2010 has now been pushed to December 1, 2010. This project has turned out to be far more demanding than we originally anticipated. The amount of research and time required for analysis and proper documentation vastly exceeded our original expectations. Original estimates were for a document of approximately 250 pages. The book will now be well over 400 pages.
The authors sincerely apologize for this delay and wish to thank those who have already placed their pre-publication orders.
To acknowledge this publication delay, we are extending the pre-publication order deadline from September 1 to November 15. Orders placed prior to November 15 will receive a 20% discount from the regular price of $5,000.
